Lionel Messi isn’t having a good season in Ligue 1, not by his own high standards, but the Argentine is nevertheless as productive as ever.
\n<\/strong><\/p>\n

Messi’s move from Barcelona last summer was hoped to be the game changer for Paris Saint-Germain in their quest to reclaim the Ligue 1<\/a> title and win the Champions League.<\/p>\n

But PSG were knocked out of the Champions League by Real Madrid, and Messi booed by his own fans in their very next game, and the Argentine’s former Barcelona team-mate Cesc Fabregas was not happy.<\/p>\n

“You’re talking about a player [Messi] who has just arrived. PSG have never had a player like this in their lives,” he told Marca<\/a>.<\/p>\n

“It’s better to be grateful, to support him and not crush him. This year or next, these guys will bring you great moments.”<\/p>\n\n

Despite PSG’s woes in the Champions League and Messi’s problems in front of goal, scoring just three times in Ligue 1 so far, the Argentine has been a key creator recording 13 assists this season.<\/p>\n

Messi is joined on double figures by PSG team-mate and assist leader Kylian Mbappe plus Rennes midfielder Benjamin Bourigeuad who hit a hat-trick of assists against Metz before the international break.<\/p>\n

The top five is completed by Dimitri Payet and Jonathan Clauss on nine assists, while there’s a large group of players with eight and seven respectively.<\/p>\n
